Vintage chess set identification help

Hi - I hope this is allowed here. I have an old chess set that I would love to know more about and have struggled to identify using the various online resources. I wondered if any of you might be able to offer me any wisdom in this quest.

Ah, I'm not sure how to add the pictures here... It seems I need help before I even get to the help I'm seeking! 

You have to be a member for some initial amount of time (a week, maybe?) before they will let you post pictures in the forum. In the meantime, you can post a link to images you have uploaded elsewhere. The regulars here are often kind enough to copy and paste them into the thread.

Thanks so much - I figured it might be something like that. Hopefully this set of links will work to show the set.

That is a 19th century English chess set in the so called St. George pattern. Pieces are most likely made of boxwood and ebony. I cannot read the inscription on the bottom, though. Anyhow, hope this helps.

Here are the copy-and-pasted pictures.

Thank you for copying these. 👍

Ah yes, that's certainly the style - thanks for that! Is there any way to try and move towards a manufacturer or is it quite possible that it was a skilled individual turning pieces themselves?

Is there any kind of catalog of chess markings in the same way there is for gold/silver manufacture stamps?

Finding out the manufacturer will be very difficult. I doubt that this is a "selfmade" set. It looks like a commercial set from a professional turner. But who exactly made the set, will be difficult to find out. The marking on the base is not necessarily an official makers stamp. From other sets I know (or even have) I can tell that some of these inscriptions have been written by the former owners. And no, I am not aware of any catalog of chess markings / manufacture stamps.
